Wildlife (Amendment) Bill 2010: Second Stage
3:00 pm
Emmet Stagg (Kildare North, Labour)
It is not now possible legally to set one animal against another with the purpose of one or other being killed. The regulations ban it. There are no legal bloodsports in Ireland unless the Green Party and its supporters want to count shooting and fishing. I accept there are strong views on both sides of this debate and I respect that. I will vote against the Bill.
